NewzOn Wednesday, New Mexico filed a lawsuit against the US Department of Justice and acting attorney general Todd Blanche, accusing the federal agency of stonewalling its ongoing criminal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
The legal action, initiated by New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez, comes in response to the Department of Justice allegedly ignoring a strict deadline for the handover of key investigative files concerning Epstein's ranch in the state.
The lawsuit escalates tensions between state and federal authorities as New Mexico seeks to compel the release of critical documentation necessary to advance its criminal inquiries regarding the late sex offender's local operations.
